Why in my head?
Perhaps somewhere else instead.
Why in my brain?
We tried a fluid drain.

I’ve had enough now, haven’t you too?

Poem from Sophie Pollock who lost her battle with cancer in 2007.

What’s the Point?

Every sense on my body,
Useless as a broken toy,
What’s the point of beauty,
If you cannot enjoy?
